The day includes special contests in keeping with this year's "Superheroes" theme, prizes, raffles, gifts, and a delicious lunch.

A prize will be awarded for "Best Dressed Foursome." Players can bid on a male caddy that will provide treats for the foursome and assistance on the golf course.

Cost is $75 for individuals, $280 for a foursome or $350 for a corporate golf package. For the registration form, visit www.nisra.org.

Check-in will be at 8 a.m. with time to hit some golf balls at the putting green and driving range. The Caddy Auction will be at 9:30 a.m., with the 9-hole shotgun start scramble format at 10 a.m. The lunch buffet begins at 1:30 p.m. with a presentation, awards and prizes.
